< Ezekiel 11 >

1 Moreover the spirit lifted me up, and brought me unto the east gate of the LORD’s house, which looketh eastward: and behold at the door of the gate five and twenty men; among whom I saw Jaazaniah the son of Azur, and Pelatiah the son of Benaiah, princes of the people.
Et elevavit me spiritus, et introduxit me ad portam domus Domini orientalem, quae respicit ad solis ortum: et ecce in introitu portae viginti quinque viri: et vidi in medio eorum Iezoniam filium Azur, et Pheltiam filium Banaiae, principes populi.
2 Then said he unto me, Son of man, these [are] the men that devise mischief, and give wicked counsel in this city:
Dixitque ad me: Fili hominis, hi sunt viri, qui cogitant iniquitatem, et tractant consilium pessimum in urbe ista,
3 Which say, [It is] not near; let us build houses: this [city is] the caldron, and we [be] the flesh.
dicentes: Nonne dudum aedificatae sunt domus? haec est lebes, nos autem carnes.
4 Therefore prophesy against them, prophesy, O son of man.
Idcirco vaticinare de eis, vaticinare fili hominis.
5 And the Spirit of the LORD fell upon me, and said unto me, Speak; Thus saith the LORD; Thus have ye said, O house of Israel: for I know the things that come into your mind, [every one of] them.
Et irruit in me spiritus Domini, et dixit ad me: Loquere: Haec dicit Dominus: Sic locuti estis domus Israel, et cogitationes cordis vestri ego novi.
6 Ye have multiplied your slain in this city, and ye have filled the streets thereof with the slain.
Plurimos occidistis in urbe hac, et implestis vias eius interfectis.
7 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Your slain whom ye have laid in the midst of it, they [are] the flesh, and this [city is] the caldron: but I will bring you forth out of the midst of it.
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus: Interfecti vestri, quos posuistis in medio eius, hi sunt carnes, et haec est lebes: et educam vos de medio eius.
8 Ye have feared the sword; and I will bring a sword upon you, saith the Lord GOD.
Gladium metuistis, et gladium inducam super vos, ait Dominus Deus.
9 And I will bring you out of the midst thereof, and deliver you into the hands of strangers, and will execute judgments among you.
Et eiiciam vos de medio eius, daboque vos in manu hostium, et faciam in vobis iudicia.
10 Ye shall fall by the sword; I will judge you in the border of Israel; and ye shall know that I [am] the LORD.
Gladio cadetis: in finibus Israel iudicabo vos, et scietis quia ego Dominus.
11 This [city] shall not be your caldron, neither shall ye be the flesh in the midst thereof; [but] I will judge you in the border of Israel:
Haec non erit vobis in lebetem, et vos non eritis in medio eius in carnes: in finibus Israel iudicabo vos.
12 And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD: for ye have not walked in my statutes, neither executed my judgments, but have done after the manners of the heathen that [are] round about you.
Et scietis quia ego Dominus: quia in praeceptis meis non ambulastis, et iudicia mea non fecistis, sed iuxta iudicia Gentium, quae in circuitu vestro sunt, estis operati.
13 And it came to pass, when I prophesied, that Pelatiah the son of Benaiah died. Then fell I down upon my face, and cried with a loud voice, and said, Ah Lord GOD! wilt thou make a full end of the remnant of Israel?
Et factum est, cum prophetarem, Pheltias filius Banaiae mortuus est: et cecidi in faciem meam clamans voce magna, et dixi: Heu, heu, heu Domine Deus: consummationem tu facis reliquiarum Israel?
14 Again the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,
Et factum est verbum Domini ad me, dicens:
15 Son of man, thy brethren, [even] thy brethren, the men of thy kindred, and all the house of Israel wholly, [are] they unto whom the inhabitants of Jerusalem have said, Get you far from the LORD: unto us is this land given in possession.
Fili hominis, fratres tui, viri propinqui tui, et omnis domus Israel, universi, quibus dixerunt habitatores Ierusalem: Longe recedite a Domino, nobis data est terra in possessionem.
16 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Although I have cast them far off among the heathen, and although I have scattered them among the countries, yet will I be to them as a little sanctuary in the countries where they shall come.
Propterea haec dicit Dominus Deus, quia longe feci eos in Gentibus, et quia dispersi eos in terris: ero eis in sanctificationem modicam in terris, ad quas venerunt.
17 Therefore say, Thus saith the Lord GOD; I will even gather you from the people, and assemble you out of the countries where ye have been scattered, and I will give you the land of Israel.
Propterea loquere: Haec dicit Dominus Deus: Congregabo vos de populis, et adunabo de terris, in quibus dispersi estis, daboque vobis humum Israel.
18 And they shall come thither, and they shall take away all the detestable things thereof and all the abominations thereof from thence.
Et ingredientur illuc, et auferent omnes offensiones, cunctasque abominationes eius de illa.
19 And I will give them one heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take the stony heart out of their flesh, and will give them an heart of flesh:
Et dabo eis cor unum, et spiritum novum tribuam in visceribus eorum: et auferam cor lapideum de carne eorum, et dabo eis cor carneum:
20 That they may walk in my statutes, and keep mine ordinances, and do them: and they shall be my people, and I will be their God.
Ut in praeceptis meis ambulent, et iudicia mea custodiant, faciantque ea: et sint mihi in populum, et ego sim eis in Deum.
21 But [as for them] whose heart walketh after the heart of their detestable things and their abominations, I will recompense their way upon their own heads, saith the Lord GOD.
Quorum cor post offendicula et abominationes suas ambulat, horum viam in capite suo ponam, dicit Dominus Deus.
22 Then did the cherubims lift up their wings, and the wheels beside them; and the glory of the God of Israel [was] over them above.
Et elevaverunt cherubim alas suas, et rotae cum eis: et gloria Dei Israel erat super ea.
23 And the glory of the LORD went up from the midst of the city, and stood upon the mountain which [is] on the east side of the city.
Et ascendit gloria Domini de medio civitatis, stetitque super montem, qui est ad Orientem urbis.
24 Afterwards the spirit took me up, and brought me in a vision by the Spirit of God into Chaldea, to them of the captivity. So the vision that I had seen went up from me.
Et spiritus levavit me, adduxitque in Chaldaeam ad transmigrationem, in visione in spiritu Dei: et sublata est a me visio, quam videram.
25 Then I spake unto them of the captivity all the things that the LORD had shewed me.
Et locutus sum ad transmigrationem omnia verba Domini, quae ostenderat mihi.
